Frenship teachers, staff to get about 4% raise
Frenship ISD teachers and staff will get a raise for the 2022-23 school year that began Wednesday, thanks to unanimous action from the school board during a meeting Monday.
Staff will see an average salary increase of 4%, with the annual pay for a first-year teacher now set at $45,500. That represents a nearly $2,500 increase over the previous school year, according to the district.
“Our staff members are highly skilled professionals who dedicate their time to serving our students and Frenship families. We value them as employees, and we see the positive impact they have on the lives of our students,” Superintendent Michelle McCord said in a statement. “We are thrilled to have this opportunity to increase the compensation of our staff members districtwide.”
Returning staff members also received a $1,000 retention bonus and new staff received a $500 sign-on bonus in addition to the salary increase.
